Serzh, today you have been elected as Armenia's president. I don't know whether to be proud of you or feel awkward. Remember, back in 1972 to 1979, we went to school together in Armenia. It's most likely that there are very few in Armenia right now who have something good to say about you, but I can say some good things about you. You were a good friend, devoted, caring, honest, I remember nothing negative in those years. And today when I see our people, with this much hatred towards you...this much...vengeance towards you...I don't understand what is going on, I'm sorry...and I see what has happened now...Kocharyan and your years of leadership...why couldn't you create that connection between yourselves and the people, I only want to have hope that you will put your past mistakes behind you, and as an Armenian brother, you will think about your people...I am begging you as a sister would, talk to the people, write to them, explain what has happened. The last time I had seen you was in the 90's, up until '93, when I was returning to Karabakh, and I was seeing you equipped with your weapon, you were always aiding me, for minor things, such as...listening to soldiers, so friendly, so nice...oh what has happened...what evil demon has taken over you? Why aren't you thinking about your people? I am congratulating you for your presidential victory, but with a broken spirit, and crying, and praying to God so that our race will finally get together, get organized, and our so-called businessmen would have some sympathy inside, caring for this race, and to do that which is honest.
